Answer:

Osmosis

Explanation:

In a highly concentrated salt solution, concentration of water is comparatively lower than the fluid inside red blood cells. This develops a concentration gradient.

Due to this difference in concentration, the water starts flowing out of the red blood cells across its permeable layer. Due to this movement of water, red blood cell shrinks. This physical phenomenon in which a substance move from a region of high concentration to a region with lower concentration across any permeable membrane is called Osmosis.

This process is called osmosis whereby water exits the cell through its selectively permeable membrane and into the salt solution to dilute and balance the pressure caused by the concentrated salt solution.

Which of the following best describes Samuel Gompers?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Samuel Gompers was the head of the largest labor federation of America known as American Federation of Labor. This organization comprised of workers that were skilled artisans, weavers, carpenters etc. He also headed the labor movement after actively forming a union of workers in the cigar industry. He himself was a cigar worker and thus could relate to the plight of the people working there. Young aged children were employed in cigar factories and the wage and benefits were not even enough to support survival of one.  

Thus, Samuel arouses his voice to stand against the injustices done to the workers in cigar factory which later turned out to be mass movement.

Control and experimental groups. They repeated their experiment several times and found the results were the same.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: Experience 1 is the one that has the greatest reliability.

Explanation:    Because of this potential variation, biological experiments need to have a large sample size and preferably be repeated several times.  With more samples and repeating the experiment more often, the probability of arriving at a wrong conclusion due to random variation is diminished. As experience 1 has had several repetitions, it is the experience with a more reliable result.
